Write a script to replace the ruby commands in each haml file with a 
unique identifier while storing the ruby commands and identifiers in a 
hash.  Then generate html from the modified haml.  Then replace the 
unique identifiers with the ruby commands in the hash suitably wrapped 
in erb syntax.

orignal haml:

  #example
    .name= foo.name

becomes:

  #example
    .name ERB00001

and hash would look like:

  'ERB00001' => 'foo.name'

changed haml should generate:

  <div class='example'>
    <div id='name'>ERB00001</div>
  </div>

Substituting from the hash with erb syntax should then yield:

  <div class='example'>
    <div id='name'><%= foo.name %></div>
  </div>


BTW, just curious why are you going from haml to erb?

Have fun,
Roy
